Hey guys, I promised to talk about "depression" on my next post so here it is!

Depression has to do with conditions associated with the lowering of a person's mood. Now there are different types of depression namely.
. Clinical depression
. Persistent depressive disorder
. Bipolar disorder
. Seasonal Affective disorder (SAD)
. Postnatal depression
. Psychotic depression etc

Our focus today will be on clinical depression also known as "major depression". people often ask what causes depression, but there is no major cause of depression. Different circumstances can lead to depression for example illness, divorce, money issues, bereavement, relationship issues and so many other factors, all of which are upsetting
life event that can trigger depression.

Let me tell you a story!
A couple lived happily together for years and they did almost everything together. They went to the movies, went clubbing, hiking, diving, jogging, swimming and vacations together and life was fun for them.
One day they decided to spice up their relationship by including a third party. This brought about argument because the woman wanted a male "third party" and the man wanted a female "third party". They argued for days and the man left home, then it dawned on the woman and she felt neglected and lonely!

The man started having an affair and the woman discovered she was pregnant. This angered her and triggered depression. The man demanded for a divorce unknowingly to him that his wife was pregnant and she granted him the divorce but decided to get back at him by sending him proof of her pregnancy and termination documents. she refused to see a specialist and she never spoke to anyone about her troubles. she bottled up everything inside and allowed anger becloud her judgement but unfortunately she died during the procedure. When the husband found out, he committed sucide because he couldn't bear the pain and it triggered depression which lead to disaster.
So what exactly am I trying to make us understand?
Depression is real, treat people the same way you want to be treated, speak love and act lovingly towards others hence it won't take anything from you, rather you might be saving a life.

Let's join hands together and fight against depression!
